Camoflaged Computer is Camoflaged

Since I’m now living in a fraternity house for the summer, I had to find a place to stash a computer for my daily activities. After investigating for a few hours I found a rather empty and unused office room. Grabbing what was available around me, I quickly setup shop so I could continue to partake in twittering, blogging, and Rick Rolling. In hopes of reducing the risk of losing my spare computer to sneaky gremlins and drunk college students, I disguised it as a rather innocuous box. It could only get better if I could somehow hide the screen.
The entire computer fits rather nicely inside of the filing box. The components include an Intel Xeon 3040 processor, 1 gigabyte stick of Buffalo Technology PC2-8000 Firestix, an MSI P35 Neo2-FR motherboard, a Gigabyte 512MB 8800GT, and my Antec 380w EarthWatts powersupply. I’ve currently got a 72% overclock going on the processor but otherwise the computer is running at stock speeds as it doesn’t do much but answer email and crawl the Internet via Majestic-12. I have faith this computer will stay with me until I can replace it with a Macbook, hopefully by the end of the summer.
Note: normally a few boxes cover up the screen and the kebyoard/mouse are hidden.
lol Thats great.
Thanks man, I enjoyed slapping it together. People laugh when they do find it, one guy didn’t understand what he was looking at.
wait a minute… I thought you said camouflaged? The blue box is sitting on your desk visible to anyone. That blue box makes it even more suspicious, I’m sure you could’ve put it under the desk atleast?! lol
Well now it has stacks of papers and a few more boxes near it the box is sort of camouflaged. At a casual glance nobody has noticed it yet. I’m still working on the visual cloak for it, having a few issues powering it *grin*
